A great time spent at Nellys House.
A great time spent at Nellys House. Small but perfectly formed. Well equipped with everything you could need for a perfect break. Situated in a beautiful part of Cornwall, perfect for Padstow, Port Isaac and excellent sandy bays and cliff top walks. The nearby Cornish Arms was excellent. The only slight negative was the pot holes on the farm drive. Would definitely recommend and would love to stay again if we are ever in the area again.
A peaceful beautiful barn conversion with a lovely history . Perfect location to many beaches and towns along this coastline. A lovely hideaway to return to after a busy day. Large hot shower and cosy fire for those chiller evenings.

Lovely little cottage set away from noise and bustle just as we wanted.
Lovely little cottage set away from noise and bustle just as we wanted. It's in the grounds of a working farm, but we were not disturbed and it was very peaceful. The drive is a bit rustic but quite manageable. The cottage owners are delightful. We would go again. Be aware the Internet signal is poor in that part of Cornwall and there is no WiFi on the farm, but many pubs, restaurants etc do offer it.
